lyrics

I was raised by a Samurai
The code and the weapons
But never realized the flaws
All decoded
in blessings
What's the difference between honor and pride?
One is foolish
I put my life on the line
As you continue blurring the lines
Clan Sakai would have died on the beach
I'm curious of the fate of the homeland if it wasn't for my "honorless" team
Sacrificing your people
To gain an inch at a time
A class of Warriors
But driven by political ties
Pride for approval
Passing judgment alike
Kill the enemy the same
Yuna taught me to work in the night
Our sacrifice on the sand and the waves
Was in vain
All the Fallen
And you probably don't remember their names
See
They studied our way of life
Way before the Invasion
And I was forced to adapt
The only way I could slay him...
My name...
travels in blood
The Khan will get every message
But they didn't study the shadows
Watch the Ghost become legend

I would be
Stripped of my name
If it meant saving my people
Believers
Not of traditions
But the Ghost of Tsushima
I would be
Stripped of my name
If it meant saving my people
Believers
Not of traditions
But the Ghost of Tsushima

My road paved with
New friends
And unlikely alliances
over time
I completely lost my previous life to this
I've seen death so many times
I'm jaded to what I do
Every stance mimics nature
The Water, wind, stone and the moon
A protector
Even if hated
For you painting me less of a man
Never forget who liberated the land
For Tsushima
I put the sword in my childhood friend
Whether
feared or revered
My clan name immortalized in the end
Regardless of my fate
my history's made
As the cherry blossoms land on my blade
And you brung me to the site of my parents grave
The sun shining on the Uncle who raised me but would still take my life for his name
An assignment that the Shogun would surely be proud of
See the red leaves match the blood I've painted a masterpiece out of
You ending me here would satisfy your compliance
The Ghost lives on in your silence...

I would be
Stripped of my name
If it meant saving my people
Believers
Not of traditions
But the Ghost of Tsushima
I would be
Stripped of my name
If it meant saving my people
Believers
Not of traditions
But the Ghost of Tsushima
